Can anyone please tell me the name of this plant? I'm led to believe it to be a Fuchsia called 'Ballerina' but I can find only one reference to it on the internet.
I see it's something off Pinterest with no clue as to where it came from. Does it even exist or is it something that has been photoshopped? It's certainly unusual and would look good in a Goth garden.
Hello Neil, I don't think it's "Ballerina" by any stretch of the imagination, as @Ceres says, it looks like something that's been photoshopped. I think it's been used for a greetings card. To me, "Ballerina" looks like this https://www.victoriananursery.co.uk/Ballerina_Fuchsia_Hedging/
If it has been photoshopped they have taken a lot of time over it as the leaves and each of the buds match the colour while the background is still a 'normal' green. Very impressed with the skill.

Such a shame.
